His famous father bought his son a $500,000 top-of-the-line fishing boat to pursue his deep-sea passion earlier in the year.

And his luxury $50,000 Mustang GT sports car is the talk of Clearwater, with loud revving and flashy bright yellow paintwork.

Connor, who was adopted by Cruise and his then-wife Nicole Kidman when he was just a baby along with a sister, Isabella, now 24 - lives in a three-bedroom town house in an exclusive Scientology community.

He has expressed an intense devotion to Scientology like his dad - doing the Mission Impossible star proud.

Connor vists the religion's spiritual HQ in Clearwater often and dines at the luxury hotel, Fort Harrison, owned by the church.

Despite being a chain-smoker, Connor - who is reported to have battled weight problems in the past - now lives a healthy life and often orders expensive gluten free meals at the Scientology restaurant.

Connor's career as a DJ is also taking off with slots booked at upmarket nightclubs all over the US.

It's believed that Connor received the $50,000 car as a gift for his 21st birthday earlier this year

DailyMail.com has learned that Connor is treated like royalty in Clearwater as the high-powered leaders hope to convince him to become an important face of the religion as is his famous dad.

A source with knowledge of the church revealed: 'The name Cruise is synonymous in Scientology. High level church officials think it's imperative Connor carries the torch, now more than ever since his sister Bella married and changed her name.'

Whenever he arrives at the main hub of Scientology in his sports car, Connor is immediately afforded special VIP treatment - parking directly outside the grand entrance.

The parking bay is only normally used by official Scientology mini-buses which chauffeur staffers from other buildings.

The source said: 'It's unprecedented for any member to be allowed to park right outside the main entrance, which is strictly reserved for the churches buses, shuttling staff to and from their living quarters.

Connor's lifestyle is in such stark contrast to his sister Isabella's life in Croydon, England

'Even high level members have to wait outside before being allowed access but Connor must be receiving special treatment because of his father's influence.'

The insider continued: 'The security treat him like a god, they look starstruck whenever he arrives and practically queue up to high-five him and say hello.

'He even leaves his sports car outside the front entrance until a lackey rushes out to valet it. Nobody else gets this sort of attention.'

In these exclusive pictures Connor is seen entering The Fort Harrison Hotel, an elegant building described as 'the jewel of Clearwater' where elite Scientologists stay during visits.

Rooms at the five-star venue will cost members anywhere from $200 per night to $2,000 for a suite.

The decor is themed in the 'Roaring '20s' era with no expense spared following a $40million renovation in 2009.

There are marble floors, gold leaf painted crown moldings, richly colored carpets and a jaw-dropping crystal chandelier that lights up the glamorous ballroom on the 11th floor.

Connor takes his pick from three restaurants - closed to the general public - serving Michelin-star quality meals to the exclusive guests.

'The chefs will cook up anything he asks for but he's actually a man of simple pleasures and orders from the menu at the Hourglass restaurant,' the source said, adding: 'He's into the healthy options and usually orders something gluten free.'

Connor has many non-Scientology friends at the marina. He is said to be concerned about being recorded and often takes phone calls outside

People who know Connor say he is a 'curious guy' and that he's 'always asking questions'

Staff arrange a private dining area on a balcony overlooking the garden and water features where he can freely smoke cigarettes.

Inside Fort Harrison, Connor spends time with staff from the notorious Sea Org, the church's most dedicated members who have all signed one billion-year contracts pledging their loyalty to the religion.

'Connor is a curious guy, he's always asking questions and like his dad is highly respected,' a source said.

Such is the level of privacy only high ranked members are allowed past the main reception area.

A worker who refused to be named said: 'The public is welcome inside the lobby to admire the beauty but generally speaking it's a hotel strictly for members. It's a retreat.'

Directly opposite is The Flag Building, known to insiders as the 'Super Power' because it offers highly confidential Scientology programs unavailable anywhere else.

Little is known about the secrets within the walls here and only elite members - who are willing the pay the astronomical course fees - are privy to details.

He often invites friends to come along to his gigs, and his father is also known to make appearances

Despite being well-known in Scientology circles, Connor still has a large group of friends outside the religion

Hidden cameras are tucked away in bushes around the perimeter of the building and security with earpieces patrol the area at all hours of the day.

Away from the church, Connor is obsessed with deep-sea fishing and Cruise bought him a luxury top-of-the-line boat for his 21st birthday in January.

He's the envy of his marina friends as his Yellow Fin-branded $500,000 boat has quad-engines and a top speed of around 70 MPH.

A source said: 'Connor takes his fishing seriously and heads out before sunrise around 4am. Sometimes he'll eat his catch but it's mostly a sport, for Connor he enjoys the challenge and competition.

'There are a few guys at the marina who go out with him, he's got a good social crowd who are all older than him and it's mixed between non-believers and Scientologists.'

Connor also takes his need for speed on the roads with his 2016 Mustang GT that boasts upgraded features worth a total of $50,000. The car's registration dates in January, suggesting it was another birthday gift.

'You can hear Connor coming a mile away, the roads in Clearwater are pretty quiet and nobody is especially flash. It's just not the done thing in Scientology,' a local said.

But aside from his flashy image Connor is said to be a cautious character who avoids being overheard, especially when having phone conversations.

The source explained: 'He'll go outside the house to speak or even down to the marina if it's something private.

'He doesn't like smoking in his house either as the community is filled with other members of the church, it's not against the rules but it's not exactly celebrated either.

'When he gets chance he'll light-up cigarettes one after another. He can go through a dozen in an hour.'

There are no rules against smoking within the church but members are prohibited from puffing away inside the buildings or when receiving auditing sessions.

In fact, founder L Ron Hubbard was a smoker and during his early preachings in 1961 even claimed it helped prevent lung cancer by helping radiation leave the body.

When approached by DailyMail.com at his $250,000 home Connor declined an interview, simply saying, 'not today' repeatedly.

While he seemed uncomfortable receiving media attention, the budding DJ is still pursuing his dreams of becoming the next Calvin Harris by booking pool parties and club gigs across America including Las Vegas and San Diego, California.
